This disclosure provides an anonymization method and apparatus, a device, and a storage medium, and pertains to the field of communications network technologies. The method includes: receiving a data obtaining request of a first terminal, and obtaining requested target data based on the data obtaining request; determining behavior data generated when the target data is obtained; determining, based on the behavior data, a first permutation character sequence corresponding to the target data; and anonymizing, based on the first permutation character sequence, a to-be-anonymized character string in the target data, and outputting the anonymized target data. In this disclosure, because the behavior data is different each time and is not easy to crack, anonymization is implemented without relying on plaintext information, thereby improving anonymization security and meeting anonymization requirements specified by laws.
